Touché.
But I know what I’d rather spend my time doing. This car isn’t built for the drag strip. [emoji6]
And yeah, partial placebo, but I messaged Mark and he said he played with my map a bit too and I’ve ‘probably got a bit more’. Happy days.
I’ve never ever ever ever felt the inclination to launch mine! Mostly because the running gear is 18 years old, and I have a modicum of mechanical sympathy. Haha.
Did get it back yesterday after it spent 7 weeks down at M.A. I had an 8 rear diff, XP8 rear pads (hate them), slight map tweak, and...
They're a f**king RIOT. An ex-colleague has a VXT with many mods and about 340BHP. One of the most entertaining things I've ever driven, right up there in top 3.

That’ll be a power flex insert into the standard engine mount, ergo crap. The standard mounts either side are chocolate, the sooner they’re binned the better!

Got my wheel back from Royals the other week...

My car's now at MA to have an VIII diff fitted, by all accounts the newer ones are a bit stronger. ?
There were no noises, nothing! I drove 60 odd miles home from Brands, drove another 60 odd down to chertsey and back for a mates birthday, then bang..
I mean, I’m glad it let me have the whole day at Brands to have fun.
